Documents are structured so it is clear who owns the output, who may use it commercially and how project changes are handled.
When advice is most useful
- when software, audiovisual work or another copyright output is created
- when a licence, sublicense or transfer of rights is negotiated
- when ownership or scope of use is unclear
Risk addressed early
The most common problem appears when the contract does not deal with further use, modifications, remuneration or transfer of rights between the author, supplier and client.
